AR/VR always seems on the cusp of taking off, yet never seems to actually do so.

I'm surprised there isn't more movement to just completely ban building in these areas. Getting everyone else to cover the cost of their predictable destruction seems very unfair.
I am aware that they have a state insurer in Florida. They are going to need it. I can't see a single private insurance company wanting to touch anything to do with rebuilding in areas affected by this. They know climate change is getting worse, and this is only going to happen soon again.
You circumvented their TOS, by using an alt account to evade a ban on a subreddit. That's why they banned you from Reddit itself.
There are a few other new heavy lift rockets in development around the world. Some people think Spacex's Starship will make them obsolete, but it doesn't seem like it will be ready anytime soon.
If someone can build robotic systems that are entirely made up of 3D printed components, that seems very possible.
A lot like Uber, in other words. But replicating a ride-hailing network with a 14-year head start will be no easy feat, especially considering the scale Uber has achieved.
I don't get the logic here. If you have The fleet of robotaxis, it seems the software to run them it's the easy part. Loads of competitors to Uber have equally good software. The bottle neck here is the supply of robo-taxis. The journalist writing this has also ignored the fact cheap Chinese cars will probably be what will dominate this space ultimately.
I've been familiar with his ideas for years, even though intellectually I could see they were true, emotionally I always felt they were science-fiction. Now this is starting to look like science-fact.
Like Covid, it seems humans have to wait until disaster is right on their doorstep, before they pull themselves together to do something about it.
For anyone familiar with the ideas behind what Ray Kurzweil called 'The Singularity', this looks awfully like it's first baby steps.
For those that don't know, the idea is that when AI gets the ability to improve itself, it will begin to become exponentially more powerful. As each step will make it even better, at designing the next generation of chips to make it more powerful.
I should have been more specific, I was just referring to the storm surge flooded areas.
